The Prince Rupert Port Authority (PRPA) is a port authority operating under the Canada Marine Act as an autonomous and commercially viable agency. PRPA has responsibility for all federally owned waterfront properties on Prince Rupert Harbour, located in and around the city of Prince Rupert on the North Coast of British Columbia.

The PRPA was created on May 1, 1999 and succeeds the Prince Rupert Port Corporation (PRPC). Prince Rupert was among 8 national ports in Canada which implemented this administrative change on this date, as required by the Canada Marine Act which passed on June 11, 1998. PRPC was the successor to the National Harbours Board, which previously operated all federally owned ports in Canada.

PRPA reports to the Minister of Transport and has a Board of Directors typically consisting of local business and community figures. In the past, the appointment process to the boards of Canada's port authorities has been criticized as they have frequently been used for political patronage.



There is far far more.

Really? China is about to take over Canada? Good luck to the Chinese in attempting to do that. Currently the USA is overwhelmingly the largest foreign investor in Canada; not surprising considering geography and the fact that it has been doing so for almost two centuries.

Let's take a look at a nation that has been doing a lot more trade with China than Canada has. That would be Australia, which has allowed almost unrestricted investment in its economy for decades. Guess what? The USA is number one there as well with China a very distant fifth.

With your PM making it easier than ever to do it they won't need any luck at all.

Sell indicates money is exchanged, the crooks that were in charge were just giving it away for free in that is what the taxpayers got out of any deal made.

Apparently not or did you miss that part??

Is that the best you can come up with, pretty sad considering you are the chief troll around here.

I am just surprised you would bring up old news like it is some kind of revelation.

But you are kind of stupid.

In the 1990s we bought China now those same western investors want us to be their supply chain and vice versa.

Look for the Assembled in Canada label coming to the back of your new TV in the very near future.
